He's not a political neophyte.
He survived attempts to imprison and bankrupt and even murder him.
And he's in president again.
So I was encouraged because I think I saw a president who understands this thing's got to get wrapped up and we got to move on.
Thank you.
See you both.
The judge in Boston effectively created her own law in order to justify her decision.
Under the law, the attorney general can allow people into the U.S.
on a case-by-case basis on temporary parole while their claims of asylum are investigated.
And that when the attorney general feels that that parole is no longer necessary, he or she has the sole discretion to terminate the parole, send the individual back to the country he or she came from.
What the judge in this case decided was, well, yeah, it says that the AG has discretion to grant parole, but we think the judiciary has the authority to determine whether the parole should have been terminated.
And it is a complete inversion of the law.
This judge out of nowhere created a right to judicial review
that simply does not exist in the law.
The real tragedy of these types of lawless decisions from unelected low level district judges around the country is what they are effectively doing is they are crippling the administration of justice and the execution of the laws which solely belong to the president.
And it may be some a small comfort to people to know that, oh, in a year or two or maybe three or maybe even after Trump is gone, that eventually the law will prevail and these lawless judges will be smacked down.
But the problem is you can't get that time back.
And it is a perfect example of why you cannot have a nation that is basically ruled by hundreds of unelected district judges.
If the founders had wanted the president have to get unanimous consent from unelected inferior judges, they would have put that in the constitution, but they didn't.
And so I view these types of decisions as just a total abomination and a lawless takeover of power that was never actually granted to the judiciary.
